Car & Carriage Caravan Museum
Overview
The Car & Carriage Caravan Museum showcases more than 140 transportation artifacts, including roughly 50 motorized vehicles and period carriages dating through the 1940s. Many pieces are restored and displayed with period costumes and interpretive labels.
The museum is on the Luray Caverns property and is included with general cavern admission. Exhibits sit alongside Shenandoah Heritage Village and Toy Town Junction, making it an easy add‑on to a visit to the caverns.
What to Expect

Look out for:
- Restored horsedrawn carriages and commercial wagons.
- About 50 motorized vehicles from early 20th century models through the 1940s.
